Un endroit où les fans d'anime peuvent se détendre, être productifs, rencontrer des personnes partageant les mêmes idées et lire des mangas tout en sirotant un délicieux café !
Kaizen Manga Café est largement apprécié pour ses boissons au matcha de qualité et son cadre chaleureux et inclusif qui fait office de lieu communautaire pour les fans de mangas et les étudiants. Le menu propose des banh mi savoureux, des onigiri, des ramen et des desserts comme le tiramisu au matcha et le matcha d'Okinawa, avec des cookies et des ingrédients frais; une vaste bibliothèque de mangas, des sièges confortables et une ambiance calme invitent à lire, étudier ou se retrouver entre amis. Le personnel est sympathique et serviable, et des options flexibles comme les abonnements ou les crédits alimentaires facilitent les longues visites, avec une ambiance propice au travail et des événements le week-end. Certains points négatifs mentionnés incluent la chaleur durant les mois chauds faute de climatisation, des incohérences occasionnelles de service et des questions de rapport qualité prix pour certains plats. Kaizen Manga Café reste une référence pour une communauté férue de mangas.
Finally visited after seeing the Tiktoks about this place. It was very lovely. For $15 I was able to get a snack & drink of choice & spend some time downstairs reading manga or working. I chose the Mango Spritz & a veggie ramen. Both were very delicious. They had a great assortment of both English & French manga as well as a good range of PG & 18+ books to choose from. They had some nice J-pop & anime OSTs playing in the background while I read.
If you're thinking of visiting I say do so! It was very cozy & a good spot to read or work.
This place was great! A really simple concept that is well executed.This was my first time drinking matcha & I was certainly not disappointed, though, sadly, I forgot to take pictures for the review. The atmosphere is cozy, the drinks are great & the staff is super friendly, not to mention the wide variety of manga. I have been there once, but will definitely return. I highly recommend this place to anyone that just wants a place to read, study or simply chat with friends.

I can't state enough how much I like Kaizen Cafe; it is like my second home :3
From the Wonderful Owner named Sara, the cozy atmosphere, the plentiful manga library, to the delicious food options (like Onigiri, Onirigi Katsu, Rice Bowl or even Ramen), to finish with the amazing Matcha drinks; there's truly something for everyone :D
& one thing is for sure; you won't leave Kaizen without a smile on your face & warmth in your heart
Okay so... this was my first time ever trying matcha - like, ever - & I'm so glad it happened at Kaizen Café I went for the raspberry matcha & OMG. It was smooth, lightly sweet, & actually so calming. Didn't expect to like it this much but now I totally get the hype. I also had one of their onigiris & it was warm, cozy, & comforting - the kind of snack that makes you feel like you're being taken care of.
The space itself is such a vibe - super chill, cozy, & somehow made me feel super productive. I even finished editing my Reel while I was there (rare win 😅).
& let's talk about Sara, the sweetest human ever. She made me feel right at home on day one. So welcoming, so kind - the kind of energy that makes you want to come back.
Which I did 👀On my second visit, I tried both the strawberry & mango matcha - & now I can't even pick a favorite. Each one has its own little vibe & I'm lowkey addicted.
As a matcha lover & someone that has tried her fair share of matcha in Montreal, I can confirm this place has the best matcha I have tried yet in the city. You can tell from the colour alone that it is of ceremonial grade. Needless to say the taste lives up to the visual. Now about the place, it is such a perfect place for manga lovers or folks who are interested in reading manga (like myself) to enjoy. They have a great selection, very cozy vibe, & the books are in great condition. Additionally, the system is something new in Montreal - instead of paying upfront for a drink, you pay 3.99 for an hour of unlimited reading & drinks (there are other combos available for those that want to eat something). Prices are reasonable & for ceremonial grade matcha, the price is extremely reasonable. The owner is lovely & a great conversationalist. You can tell they put great care into the place, the details of the place & you can feel their warmth in the place too.
